Question Haven't worked on the Z in a while and looking to upgrd

Ok, I have a 06 roadster a/t and I usually only drive it to go to the drag strip. Looking to upgrade some more and wondering if anyone had suggestions. I really want to get fuel rails, injectors, engine management.

What I already have-

Injen cold air intake
Kinetix velocity intake manifold
Berk straight thru test pipes
3in Y pipes
3in in cat back (single into dual mufflers)
Dynotune n2o system spraying 120hp shot

I currently run 13.3 on a normal basis but my best is a 12.98 @ 107mph

I have a fuel pump thats not installed and I also just upgraded my rims and tires to 10in wide nitto 555s and have yet run with these installed.

Just wondered what you guys think and what you think I should do next to make my beast even faster. Thanks all

Not to be a jerk but... how is it fun to race an A/T on the dragstrip?

I mean... yeah it'll get you pretty consistent as it does all the shifting but I think it takes the fun out of "racing".

Real LSD isn't gonna do much on the strip. The more gearing would be nice though.

What about a set of real tires/wheels for the strip?

Fuel pump shouldn't be a problem unless you are curently running out of fuel as is.

Just re-read your post, you are not tuned for the nitrous? That alone will help you out. Get a tune.
